Samsung is wooing developers in an effort to push its Galaxy smartphones and tablets, which have been popular with consumers, into the enterprise.
Samsung has released programming tools for the Galaxy devices to members of its Solutions Exchange, a program announced on Wednesday to help companies write and deploy mobile applications on Samsung smartphones and tablets.
The tools released include the Galaxy software development kit and 1,000 APIs (application programming interfaces), designed to enable developers to write applications that take advantage of features unique to Samsung's latest Galaxy devices.
With the move, Samsung hopes developers will write applications tuned for the enterprise. For example, developers will be able to write applications that take advantage of the S-Pen, which is a stylus that allows users to take notes on Galaxy devices that support the feature.
